Abstract
The GRS task was envisioned as a means of providing the IAEA with a single instrument with the capability to review a variety of video surveillance systems already in routine use, or contemplated for future deployment. These include the Modular Integrated Video System (MIVS), the Multiplex TV Surveillance System (MUX), the Multi-camera Optical Surveillance System (MOS) and the Compact Surveillance Monitoring System (COSMOS). During 1992, significant efforts were undertaken by IAEA to specify and evaluate commercial or nearcommercial systems as available from both MIVS and MOS manufacturers. This paper summarizes the design, manufacturing effort and subsequent evaluation of the Aquila review system by IAEA evaluators.
